This is a song of appreciation for all the people without whom our schools wouldn’t function – such as the secretary, the lunchtime supervisor, the nurse and the cleaners, among others. It’s a sample song from a set of nine songs Donna has written on the theme of “School”. Others include “The Nurse”, “My Packed Lunch Box”, “School Time” and “Uniform Calypso”.

This download of “The Folk At Our School” consists of:

• PDF of the music and lyrics
• 2 MP3 files of vocal and piano backing tracks
• PowerPoint of the song with embedded audio of both vocal and piano backing tracks
• Word document of the lyrics and helpful teacher’s notes

No licence is required for performing any of Donna’s material, and the music and lyrics may be copied freely for use within or by your school.

The complete "School” song pack is available from our TES shop for £5. It includes a PDF of the music and lyrics, PowerPoints, mp3 audio tracks and teacher’s notes.

But Note!

Songs that children will enjoy about members of their school. There is an advert for additional resources that cost.

I don't think the community fully appreciates how long it takes to write and record a song. I thought this was really clever. Thank you
